The PC is either making a comeback or never went away in the first place, depending on who you ask. Whichever camp you're in, a deluge of triple-A titles, virtual reality and (whisper it) decent console ports make picking the PC over the Xbox One or PS4 a no-brainer. Whether you're a mouse-and-keyboard diehard who mutters boom, headshot! in their sleep, or a joypad-wielding adrenaline junkie, the PC has no shortage of blockbuster and indie titles to help you waste away the hours.We've rounded up the best games currently available for the PC. If you don't agree, let us know in the comments below. So here we go - click on for best 16 PC games currently available today.TechRadar's favourite PC games of all time1.

A fast refresh rate and excellent colour reproduction is normally a combination that is hard to come by. Most gamers know the trade off; for a minimum in "ghosting" you will have to sacrifice accurate colour reproduction. With the arrival of 144 Hz monitors that sport a IPS panel this trade off is no longer necessary, Acer was the first manufacturer that could provide us with such a screen and we have tested the Predator XB270HUbprz.

The new revision of the ADATA Premier SP600 SSD is incorporating one of the newer Jmicron JMF670H controller, which is accompanied by one Nanya NT5CB64M16FP-DH as buffer and also eight ADATA-branded MLC NAND Flash memory chips. Premier SP600 is meant for the entry to mainstream market and while the product succeeds to deliver good read speeds, it fails to impress in the writes department.

There are many great choices of headsets out there that can take your gaming experiences to the next level of immersion that your favourite games all deserve. This market can be particularly challenging where performance, usability and original design can be just as important as each other and then it has to be at a desirable price point. ASUS being ASUS, in their ever evolving innovative development plans, managed to mash an avian predator to create an original line of gaming products... enter STRIX.

The STRIX headset is a suspension design with some funky angles to the frame while on each earcup there is a glowing eye that, when folded flat, looks like the STRIX cyber owl staring at you, kudos for original design. The STRIX 7.1 represents the pricier surround option which has Crammed in a total of 10 drivers, 2x 40mm drivers, a 30mm driver and 2x 20mm on each side making the STRIX 7.1 geared to provide real rendering of 7.1 surround sound. To help control this headset ASUS have also included a USB audio station which has a fair few tricks up its sleeve too!

ASUS has been expanding their STRIX gaming line from just graphics cards, now they have keyboards, mice, headsets, and even mousepads. Today we will be taking a look at the STRIX Tactic Pro, which is a very nice mechanical gaming keyboard this is being offered with Cherry MX Black, Blue, Red and Brown switches. Besides just coming with mechanical key switches the keyboard has an astounding 21 macro keys, N-Key rollover over USB, full illumination, multimedia keys, and of course software to control everything. Is this a gaming keyboard you should consider? Read on as we find out!

I have seen some very cool customized cars at car shows and community events. Some of the builds involve getting a larger engine to fit into the chassis of a smaller vehicle. The people who manage to fit those components into the smaller cars impress me, and it proves that you are only limited by your imagination and determination, to some degree. Computer modders can be equally impressive in what they manage to cram into certain chassis. Not all of us have the talent to mod a case to our desire, so we look for stock cases that have some flashiness and the features we need. Like with cars, you don’t always need the biggest chassis to fit your components. The Bitfenix Aegis is just that, a smaller mid-tower chassis with the flexibility to mount a full custom liquid cooling loop. The Aegis supports up to seven 120mm fans or five 140mm fans, dual 280mm radiators and even locations for a 360mm radiator. Bitfenix has provided support for Micro-ATX and mini-ITX motherboards with the Aegis. The drive bays are also flexible, with support for four 3.25” drives and three 2.5” drives. In fact, you can remove all the drive bays and still use one 2.5” drive to build your show piece. While there is a lot of support for liquid cooling systems, you can’t forget the air cooling potential, as well; support for seven 120mm fans or five 140mm fans, CPU coolers to 170mm in height, and GPU lengths to 380mm in length.

Today we look at a powerful, yet diminutive new system from UK system builder CyberPower called the Infinity Xtreme Cube. This system is built around the Gigabyte X99M-Gaming 5 motherboard – installed inside the tiny Corsair Air 240 chassis. It features a liquid cooled, pre-overclocked six core Core i7 5820k processor. Cyberpower have included a 400GB Intel 750 Series M.2 PCIe Solid State Drive card for boot duties, 16GB of 2,400mhz DDR4 memory and an Nvidia GTX970 graphics card.

Move over, Titan X, overclocked 980 Tis are coming through. Which is the best graphics card that money can buy? Prime silicon and an outlandish 12GB frame buffer are enough to give the nod to Nvidia's GeForce GTX Titan X, we reckon, but if you're just a smidge more sensible with your money, the GeForce GTX 980 Ti is the card you should be looking at.

Arguably too good to be seen as a second-rung solution, the GTX 980 Ti takes almost everything that's tasty about GTX Titan X and repackages it in a higher-clocked guise that's better suited to enthusiast gamers. Nvidia's reference card proved to be a stellar performer in our initial review, but you don't need to be a fortune teller to know that partner cards are going to be quicker still.

When it launched its initial line-up of Haswell-E based processors and the companion X99 chipset, Intel’s motherboard partners hit the ground running with some fairly exciting products. At the time of the launch, we featured a few offerings in our review—you can check them out right here. But, as is sometimes the case, the second wave of products based on a particular technology are sometimes more exotic and may offer features not found on the first release.

Such is the case with the motherboards we’re going to show you here from Gigabyte. Although they’re based on the same chipset, the Gigabyte X99-SOC Champion and X99-Gaming 5P are actually quite different. One of the boards is a non-nonsense hot-rod of sorts, targeted at hardcore overclockers, while the other is loaded to the gills with features galore...

Barring any unforeseen complications, HTC One M9 users in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa should be receiving an OTA update today which will bring the software to version 1.40.401.5.

The original Kingston HyperX SSD series was released back in 2011 and refreshed in 2012 when the HyperX 3K SSD was unleashed. The HyperX 3K has remained the flagship drive in the Kingston SSD arsenal, but after three years of holding that position it is finally time for something new to come along and head up the brands SSD offering. That new drive is the HyperX Savage SSD and they are available in 120GB, 240GB, 480GB and 960GB capacities. Legit Reviews takes a look at the HyperX Savage 240GB SSD in our review today!

Intel's new Braswell SoCs promise to be faster across the board while also consuming less power than Bay Trail. The new chips are manufactured using Intel's 14nm process and include the mobile Celeron N3000, N3050, N3150, and Pentium N3700. The last three are meant for desktop systems and today we have the N3050 and N3700 in hand for testing.

Today we have the new Annapurna Alpine Cortex A15 powered Netgear Ready NAS RN202 on hand for some benchmarking. This new series features a 2-bay and 4-bay model, though for today’s review we have the smaller 2-bay version. They come in a number of configurations using either 2TB or 3TB hard drives, while they are also available in diskless form...

Back in May of 2014 we took our first look at the Netgear ReadyNAS RN102 and RN104. Back then the $250 4-bay RN104 was particularly interesting as it was the cheapest diskless NAS of its size that we had come across.

The Olympus SH-2 is aimed at holidaying and travelling photographers, with its main selling point being a 24x optical zoom which gives you the equivalent of 25-600mm in 35mm terms. You can also boost that up to 40x using the digital zoom.It features a 1/2.3 inch 16-million pixel CMOS sensor, which is accompanied by a TruePic VII image processing engine. Other features include a three-inch, 460,000-dot, touch-sensitive rear LCD screen, the ability to shoot in raw format, full manual control, 18 scene modes, smart panorama mode and a range of art filters. In-built Wi-Fi connectivity is also included.There are also some interesting video options. On top of full 1080p video recording, there's the ability to create time-lapse movies in camera, as well as shooting at 240fps to create slow motion films.

The group that was once Nokias mobile division has gone through a great number of changes in the past few years. After declining sales of Symbian devices, the company decided to go all in with Microsofts Windows Phone platform. In a very short time, Nokia became the number one vendor of Windows Phone smartphones in the world. Despite this, the move to Windows Phone failed to revitalize the company. In August of last year, Microsoft purchased Nokias mobile devices business in a 7.2 billion dollar acquisition. Less than a month later, Microsoft launched the Nokia Lumia 830, and the Nokia Lumia 735. These were the last two Lumia smartphones that would be branded as Nokia devices. With Nokias phone division absorbed into Microsoft, future Lumia devices would fall under the Microsoft brand.

Todays review focuses on the Microsoft Lumia 640. This phone was announced alongside the Lumia 640 XL at MWC in February, and its one of the first new Lumia devices released under the Microsoft brand. At $129, the Lumia 640 occupies a fairly low price point as far as smartphones are concerned, and it serves as an entry model to the Lumia smartphone line. To see how it compares to the competition, and to its fellow Lumia devices, read on for the full review.
